How do I install iTunes on my new Windows 8 Acer laptop? Nothing seems to be working

How do I get iTunes to install on my new Windows 8 Acer laptop? Nothing seems to be working.

Yes, you can use the staller CD that came with your iPod. It should have all the iPod Updater and iTunes software needed for your iPod and your new computer.
Also, if you don't have the CD available or you want a different way, you can install iTunes 6.0.5 from Apple's website. See this link for installation:
Download iTunes 6
Also, you'll need the iPod Updater software (as I previously mentioned). You can download this from Apple's website on here as well:
iPod Updater
iPod Software

  • I have installed iTunes on my new windows 7 dell laptop every time I start it it comes up with an error saying itunes has encountered a problem and it closes ? any answers have tried command prompt reset and it has not resolved it also un/reinstalled

    I have installed iTunes on my new laptop OS Windows 7. I have two iphones, a 3rd gen nano and an ipod classic.
    Since the install yesterday I keep getting an error message which itunes has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a soluion is available.
    I have un and re installed and followed a command promt reset.
    I still have the problem. Any ideas?

    Ok. So I created a new account and iTunes did work. I went back into my original account and tried again and just to be more clear, after I open iTunes it asks me to accept or decline the agreement, I do that, then it says "updating library", and then one all the bars are full it closes and says "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close."
    okay, let's start working through the user-account-specific causes of this message.
    one possibility is damaged itunes preference files in the user account in which you're getting the crash. (there's a different set of those in each different user account, which is how we can get crashes limited to a single user account.)
    if that is what is going on, we can often get past this by rebuilding the preference files in the account that is crashing. for the preference files rebuild technique, see my reply to kusma in this post:

  • How do I transfer iTunes to a new Windows 7 computer?

    How do I transfer my ITunes to a new Windows 7 computer?  Do I download iTunes and then transfer files, or transfer files before dowloading program?

    More on iTunes library files and what they do - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes#Media_management
    What are all those iTunes files? - http://www.macworld.com/article/139974/2009/04/itunes_files.html
    Your playlists are part of the library.itl file which controls everything you see when you open iTunes.  That is why it is essential you move the whole iTtunes folder and everything it contains, especially the library.itl file.  iTunes library is a bunch of files and folders working together and if you omit some then it breaks.
    Stating simply, "This did not work for me," offers the presumption you are content with that status.

    Are you using Internet Explorer for the download, robin?
    If so, the following documents might be of some help:

    The forums for members of Apple's developer programs are here:
    http://developer.apple.com/devforums/
    If you're not doing development yourself, I would advise against installing either iTunes 10.5 or especially iOS 5. Both are beta software and almost certainly have faults and incomplete features. You definitely should not install iOS 5 on any device you depend on for general use.
    Regards.

    Hello hallefrompa,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The following article provides an answer to your question:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202
    iPod shuffle and iPhone are intended for use with a single computer. You cannot load music from multiple computers or iTunes libraries onto iPod shuffle and iPhone like you can with other devices.
    You'll need to setup your iPod to sync to this new iTunes library:

  • HT1926 When I try to install itunes on my new windows 7 laptop, itunes takes over all my programs. What can I do to install itunes?

    Whenever I try to install itunes on my windows 7 laptop, itunes takes over all my other programs. What can I do?

    First I'd set up a System Restore point. Then try applying the LNK registry fix from the following document:

    Does that get your icons back to normal?

    But you can install any version of Windows or Linux legally on an Apple notebook.  That has to do with license agreements.   You can read all the license agreements for Apple's operating systems here:
    http://www.apple.com/legal/
    This tip explains how:

    It may be time to sell your Acer, and get an Apple instead.

  • Installing iTunes 10 on new Win7 64 bit laptop

    I have downloaded iTunes for 64bit Win7 and when i try to install I get an immediate response that this is not a "win32 application". Ok i'm game so i download the 32 bit version thinking that i've made a blue and perhaps my OS isn't 64bit after all. Of course it doesn't work either suggesting i get the 64 bit version.
    Anyone else had this similar issue and resolved it satisfactorily.
    Have Zone Alarm firewall operating if that makes any difference.

    Yes a lot of people in Australia are seeing this, esp with those USB dongles for internet access.
    Something is wrong with its setting? the PC? and the file gets corrupted on the download.
    Older thread about it:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11461015#11461015
    You can try kat476's method at the end of that topic:
    clearing my browsing history, temp files and existing apple file.
    Zone Alarm, as far as I know, doesn't block the download, but it can definitely block a proper installation. Download the itunesSetup64.exe, and temporaily turn off ZA while installing.

  • I keep getting an error message while trying to install itunes on my new windows 7 (64 bit)

    During the install i receive this error message.
    Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
    It gives me the options to Abort, Retry, or Ignore.
    I have attempted to retry and it just comes back. I have tried to ignore this and the install does not complete properly.
    I am using firefox to do this download. Could this be causing a problem.
    What do I need to do?

    What operating system do you run on your Mac?
    You have to be running Snow Leopard on a 64-bit machine.
